Hi,

 I would know if somebody have ever tried to run linux on this piece of hw

http://www.mio-tech.be/en/gps-navigation-device-Mio-P350-specifications.htm

 do you think it is possible? Do you know somebody who had any kind of
success in doing this?

 Thanks,

It certainly would be possible; it has sufficient specs.  The trick is
finding/learning/reverse-engineering enough about the device to get a
Linux kernel onto it and booted.

 At this time it seems nobody tried

 Unfortunately I do not have such electronics background to do a thing
like this (and I do not have the mio P350 too).

 Thanks,
