There are two reasons for this, actually: 1. The MVP tutorials were written months before Activities and Places became available in GWT 2.1.0. 2. The concepts are somewhat orthogonal, that is, Activity != Presenter.
I think some of the reason for the confusion around Activity vs. Presenter has been that the community has different definitions of what is a presenter. In the first version of the gwt-presenter framework (and perhaps Ray Ryan's MVP talk at I/O '09--I'd have to go back and listen to be sure), a presenter was associated with a place, and this is the way many continue to think about presenters. Others take the more narrow view that it's just the biz logic behind a view or widget and is not tied to the concept of a place at all. In the latter concept, an Activity might load a view which consists of multiple sub-views or widgets, each backed by a presenter. Only the Activity itself is mapped to a Place.
