Did you fit the poly anti-roll bushes at the same time?

If so, this might be contributing to the "jiggly" ride, as it lessens the independence of the suspension on either side and makes the suspension less compliant. See the discussion a few days ago on the SAS anti-roll bars and anti-roll bars in general.
I really don't find mine too bad, and think it's less "crashy" on uneven surfaces than the standard Aero suspension was. Then again, I also have a CSE with what I believe to be the sport suspension (equivalent to the Aero, from what I can tell) and it isn't as bad as I remember the Aero suspension being.
Otherwise, it does sound as if you have done everything right. There's little I can think of that you could do wrong that would cause the suspension to be too hard, but otherwise work fine.
I did find that the springs took about 10K miles to settle down to their final position. Abbott claimed they would lower the car by 10mm and initially they did (well, maybe 15mm), but I think they eventually settled down to around 30-35mm lower than standard! The ride also feels better now. I don't know whether it is me or the ride that has adapted...
