According to a renowned Apple analyst, Mark Gurman, the company doesn't have enough products to hold a dedicated event in October, so it might have decide to launch them with separate press releases instead. The Cupertino-based firm believes that a couple of press releases spaced apart are more effective than a full blown at this point in time. It's not the first time Apple chooses to do so.
