The Cyberdeck was first used in the 1980 John M. Ford novel Web of Angels, about half a decade before Neuromancer, and before Vinge's far more influential "True Names" for that matter.
I have always had a fondness for Ford's cyberdeck as it had analog sliders as well (and a few other absurd features).
