Things To Do Your Thing: The Philips Campaign and Its Gadgets
The surviving 2005 homepage capture shows a Philips-branded “Things To Do Your Thing” site with a Thingstar Flash feature and links to product resources including the PET800 and HDD060/05. The archive preserves a doorway into the campaign, but not enough evidence to reconstruct the full promotion. (2005 homepage capture)

What the archive shows
A separate country and language selector lists regional campaign destinations. This supports a multi-region site structure, not proof of how every local campaign differed. (2005 selector capture)
The preserved Thingstar introduction contains a Flash embed. Its available page text does not explain the creative, participation steps, prizes or outcome. Without accessible campaign materials, those details remain unknown. (Thingstar intro capture)
Separate campaign and product evidence. Original diagram by Things To Do Your Thing; facts are traced to H01-S1, H01-S4, H01-S5.
The products linked from the site
The page’s product navigation points toward devices with their own documentation. The Philips HDD060 manual covers a portable music player and its DMM music-transfer workflow; the PET800 manual documents a portable DVD player and its supported media/connection instructions. Those manuals explain the products, not the campaign’s history. (HDD060 manual; PET800 user manual)
What the archive cannot establish. Original diagram by Things To Do Your Thing; facts are traced to H01-S3.
The current Things To Do Your Thing project is an independent editorial archive. It is not presented as an official Philips continuation. Explore the HDD060 and PET800 guides for sourced device information.
This article records the captured interface and its limits; it does not claim a complete chronology or full account of the historical campaign.
