I am not sure, but it is possible that firmware update delayed. May be it contains same bug as 34nm MLC g2 updated version of ssd.

so far this is what I found on Intel website

They have consolidated firmware 8820 with firmware for 34nm SSD as stated in their release notes

Intel® X18-M/X25-M 34nm 2CV102G9 SSD firmware and X18-M/X25-M 50nm 045C8820 SSD Firmware

8840 is for X25-E not M

Sorry, but your links are useless for x25-e owners today
