I dunno what you mean about *Amiga* graphic tablets, but I wrote a driver for some serial tablets a few years ago called "FormAldiHyd". You might get some second hand tablets of the supported kind (Aiptek 6000) on eBay.

Just a quick notice about FormAldiHyd (on serial tablets).

It fully works with:
- AipTek HyperPen 6000 (maybe other boards aswell, still unconfirmed).
- AipTek HyperPen 8000
- Aldi/Medion MD 9310 and Aldi/Tevion LT 9310

It works partly with:
- Wacom IV compatible (Graphire, ArtPad, A3, A4, A5 and PenPartner)
- SummaGraphics compatible boards (unconfirmed).
- AceCad boards (unconfirmed)

It does currently NOT work with:
- Wacom V series (Intuos) (might be added on demand)

As for USB tablets, these need to be conforming to the HID specs to work nicely with the Poseidon USB Stack. The AipTek ones do (AFAIK), however, the Wacom ones are pretty bad at this and will only work in "mouse mode" without a special driver.
