The woman would then be quickly detained with the device being impounded. She'd then get a military escort to a secure government facility where she would have a lot of explaining to do.
Remember that plastics weren't even in mass production back then and a device as sophisticated as a 21st century smartphone would appear as though it originated from a different planet. This poor woman would soon be strapped to a bed and have probes and wires running in and out of her body with men in white coats and clipboards all around her.

TALK the WALK or WALK the TALK
Who actually developed the first Walkie-Talkie?http://www.hyperstealth.com/DonHings/first-walkie-talkie.htm
'Gertrude is talking to one of the scientists holding another wireless phone who is off to her right as she walks by.'
Sounds more like a walkie-talkie than a phone.
I saw a documentary on WWII development of the proximity fuse at APL and Aberdeen. They were on the leading edge of miniaturization of vacuum tubes, not to mention being able to survive being fired out of a canon.
“Hi, hon, could you fix my laptop?”
In the 60’s, the father of a friend had a phone in his car. I’m blanking on the car model. It was a hard top convertible.
The phone was large, had a regular handset, and was in a compartment to the right of the driver. The father was a wealthy real estate developer.
I'm not sure, it could be either Kirk or Spock but seeing as she is a woman you can be sure it wasn't Mr. Sulu. Oh my.
The thing that gets me is that these people are just getting off work at a factory and all dressed up men in coat and tie and women in nice dresses.
They had awesome cell towers back in the 1930s. The data connections were very fast, too, because so few people were using it.
Strange. None of the men are wearing shorts. I guess back in those days, men dressed like...adult men.
Hello? Hello? Is anyone there?
Obviously it’s time travel. It’s the only thing that makes sense...
Especially when you ignore that the woman in front of her is carrying the same clutch the woman has on her neck.
People back then actually looked up now and then while texting....
Wakie-talkies had nothing to do with transistors. A W-T was a multiple tube FM backpack set and was the grandfather of the PRC25 and PRC 77. The Handie-talkie was the handheld set the size of a big brick that you see in war movies. It was a Motorola SCR 536.
