I dont think so. Tweetdeck need to store our twiter's username and

The most recent versions of TweetDeck for the desktop, from v0.33 onwards,
already use xAuth rather than basic authentication, so will be unaffected
by this change.

... we have had to update our iPhone and iPad apps to use xAuth for Twitter
authentication.



TweetDeck think so.
