R&DL Productions sells the AproDraw Tablets/Software which are really just
SummaGraphics SummaSketch MM series tablets.

I talked to them a while back asking if they would just sell me the driver 
since I had access to the tablet already. They sent me some info and gave me
a price of $69.85 for the driver, which would allow the tablet to look like a
mouse to the amiga, but in absolute co-ordinates rather than relative like a
mouse's. They claim it works with all amiga software, including paint programs.

The price seemed a little steep to me for just a driver so I have never ordered
it. But their phone number is (718) 392-4090
