That's just how Apple does their announcements: in big piles at few dates. The alternative would be to dribble them out slowly. As someone who is not particularly interested in Apple news either, I actually prefer this. Better get it out of the way in one fell swoop than have one announcement every other week that dominates the discussion all the time. Things being as they are, there are 3-4 Apple events per year, and so there are 48-49 weeks without big Apple news.
