Nothing new in this department. Corsair is always so slow when releasing new firmwares, competition is always ahead 
PS: I know Sandforce creates the firmware, but I'm sure they released final firmware updates for other memory manufacturers much much faster than Corsair. Is it because bad relations with them? Waiting more than a year for a firmware it's way too much. Also no changelog? Someone would say "wtf".

Corsair does Internal testing on the firmware Sandforce gives them.
If it fails their Internal testing then the firmware update does not get released.
If it passes then it will be released.

Okay, but why here is Yellowbeard writes, that the Corsair makes for a repair?
No answer of the responsible person, no effort....., while we are paid for their product.

Last update was ready since summer, but 5 months delayed because of internal testings... With the new internal testings we will need to wait another 6 months for a good firmware release? This is so pitty... So much wait, one year for a working firmware and no changelog...

We don't have a change log at this time because Engineering is working on the update issue as opposed to publishing a change log. I'll put up a log at a later date.

I have experienced the same problems, If "Internal Testing" takes so long then maybe the "Bugs" everyone is seeing is just an imaginary thing? Comon Guys get it right. If its buggy, dont sell it. I wasted more than a day trying to get one firmware installed. Who am I going to charge? Corsair or San....

F60 firmware upgrade from 2.1b to 2.4 went smoothly
Just received my RMA'd F60; Installed Win7-64 and simply ran the firmware upgrade tool as administrator. I also made the compatibility mode 'Win7', but I don't think that is actually needed. Firmware updated, system rebooted, and a running the upgrade tool showed that 2.4 firmware was installed. I hope this SSD lasts more than 5 months.

Toshiba R705-35 laptop
Force Series F240
I've owned my Force Series F240 ssd for more than a year and have been following the various problems listed in this forum during that time. During this time I've only had occasional problems with the drive not being found on cold boot. I didn't have any problems with BSOD after a sleep.
I upgraded every time Toshiba issued a new BIOS. I upgraded the ssd firmware 1.1a to 2.0. I think the problems with finding the drive on cold boot got better, slightly. I didn't keep real stats.
I recently upgraded to the latest Intel series 5 4-port SATA AHCI controller (10.8.0.1003) and started to have an occasional BSOD after a sleep (S3 I think). I don't know the reason for the BSOD but they started after the upgrade. No worse problems with hibernation.
Then, I upgraded my F240 to firmware 2.4. I waited to see how it went for other people before I jumped in. I set the upgrade executable compatibility to Win7 and ran it as administrator. I don't know if this is required but I did it on recommendations in this forum. Both the SSD and the upgrade file appeared as options in the upgrade application. I did this running off the SSD (C:) itself. The laptop is in ACHI mode. I selected the *.pkg file and after one reboot I was running the latest firmware. This was with the latest version 10.8.0.1003 of the Intel series 5 4-port SATA AHCI controller installed.
It will take time to see if this is an improvement.
P.S.
I've put this laptop to sleep, hibernated it, shut it down, restarted, etc... over the last four days and no signs of any problems finding the drive on cold boot and no BSOD on recovery from sleep.
P.S. I got BSOD after some sleeps using the Intel 5 series 4-port SATA ACHI Controller version 10.8.0.1003. I backed down to version 10.1.0.1008 and no problems with sleep. I still on occasion see the SSD not found on boot problems..

Still no update....
I wanted to ask how the work is ongoing to update the firmware 2.4?
It seems as if you took off your engineers at Christmas.
