The other thing which helped me (apologies because I've commented about 
this before) was to swap the pulleys on the rear derailleur.  

Newer RD's are designed to have float in the top pulley, which by nature 
makes any direct-touch (i.e. "non-indexed") system imprecise.  The cogsets 
on the current setups are designed to make the chain shift. The chains are 
super flexible and designed to shift. The float in the upper top pulley is 
designed to compensate for an automatic shifter being in the wrong spot.  
All those things make it increasingly tricky to have a "feel" of when the 
chain is about to shift.

Of course, these new-fangled wire-connected derailleurs are just a fad 
anyway... ;^)  (viva Quickbeam!)
