Logitech also promises backward compatibility with their earlier models of wireless peripherals, so you can use an existing device that you own already with the unifying receivers.
Might check with Logitech support to see if the new ones include backwards compatibility for yours.
It's almost as if people are the problem.

i did - unfortunately, the earliest 2.4GHz connected mouse supported by "Unifying" is a few years after this one.

i've been in a week-long conversation with a Logitech support representative - they were amazed this mouse was still working 15 years later and after suggesting i check amazon marketplace and ebay for a compatible receiver (there were none, or they were bundled with the mouse for an excessive price), they said they would keep an eye on their internal 'spare parts bin' and let me know if one showed up there.
