How do you know they're not planning any acquisitions? They may just be saving up to buy half of the cable content providers all at once and then providing that service insanely cheap on only Apple devices.
Or not.
Point being is that they could do something insane like that, and they're the only company that can.
Apple is a growth company, I think raising the dividend anymore would signal that they've run out of ideas and are trying to change into a value company.

Acounting for the extra week last year, Apple still grew earnings 13.5%... Find me a stock that grew at 13.5% with supply constraints at a 7 P/E ratio ex cash.

AAPL can still buy NFLX and barely put a dent in its cash.

This might be the funniest comment I've read. Everybody already has an iPhone or Android device. There is no compelling reason to stop having those devices, especially when those platforms have such sticky ecosystems.
