I graduated from high school in 1963, I don't recall hearing anything about being able to carry a phone in your pocket.
I got myself a seniors' GPS. Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination, it tells me why I wanted to go there.

If it wasn't in the sports section it escaped me.

if you think about it 1963 we had smaller and smaller radios the receiver end could fit in your pocket , very shortly you could get a motorola vhf on a belt and radio telephone patch was starting to happen touch tone technology was also happening.
battery technology is a large part of what made early cell phones so large
the first Cell phone call was made in 1973 by Motorola so not unrealistic to think they were conceptualizing in 63 the brick phone was released in 1983
then it was a matter of building network, opening up frequencies and battery technology to make it so you really could have a motorola flip-ish phone that fit in your pocket in 1989
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.
