"In time for the holidays" does not necessarily mean before them. It just means not after them. From what I've been reading, I actually really don't expect a PA announcement in this newsletter. I'm sure PA preparations have something to do with the delay. And that's a good thing as far as I'm concerned - they are hard at work. But I'm pretty sure the PA announcement will be separate from the newsletter. So don't get your hopes up :)

I actaully agree with this. I'm not expecting to see the PA date within this Newsletter myself either. I expect that to come closer to the Start of PA, and much like you Baz I'm not expecting anything till next month. I've waited this long and can wait a little longer now that I know it will be here before 2018.
