The leaves are a clue in the invitation! They're going to "leave" the new MacBook Pros until next year.
OH MY GOD. the leaves look like an eye. RETINA MINI IPAD CONFIRMED.
They say "A LOT", and by "A LOT" I really don't think they mean just 3 products...
can't read too much into the "we've got a little more to show you".. here's the invite from last year's 10-23-12 event unveiling the ipad mini.. same text

"This time it won't be about phones, but Apple has more to talk about this fall the company's just sent out invites to an event on October 22nd in San Francisco. It's likely that this is where it will announce new iPads, along with the final features and availability of OS X 10.9 Mavericks, new MacBook Pros, and maybe even the wild new Mac Pro we first saw at WWDC in June. We may also hear about Apple TV, and rumors continue to fly that Apple's working on a smartwatch. Whatever there is to see, The Verge will be there live with up-to-the-second updates on anything and everything the company might show."
"IPADS, MACBOOKS, MAVERICKS, TV AND MAYBE A WATCH?"
They seem pretty sure about MacBooks. Let's face it guys, think clearly for a second. Chances are pretty high it's coming.

a lot to cover > a little more to show you

They said they were going to release the Haswell rMBP at WWDC so it doesn't mean anything
Galaxy Gear is awful, ugly, and plain expensive. It's gimmicky, lame, and stupid. Apple would be smart by not joining the trend.

After the February 2013 "bump", it would have been extremely fast to release a new rMBP, wouldn't it? October sounds more probable imo, why wouldn't it happen now?
Or Apple would be smart to make a GOOD smartwatch. I'm not expecting it yet anyway.
iPad 4 was released 6 months after the iPad 3.
They were simply not ready to ship them in June
***** Yes! A big slap to the naysayers, thanks alot Apple! Just prove us that you can deliver new rMBP's within the weeks
And show us you can improve the battery life to match or exceed Dell's with or without an IGZO!

"We've got a little more" is different than "We still have a lot to cover"... theres got to be a LOT to cover.

Throw enough adjectives in there?
That was me, actually!
And you misread what I said. I was just saying that if a 10-15% performance boost (which is the most we'll see from the Haswell refresh) is enough to make or break your productivity, it might be a good idea to re-evaluate how you work. Which was another way of saying, why get your panties in a knot over such a trivial bump in performance?? An early-2013 rMBP won't be at a major disadvantage over the Haswell--that's a given.
And I enjoyed the GTA reference just the same. (I finally beat GTA5 last night. Masterpiece!!)
