I agree with most of what is said above. The trouble with the A320 is that you cannot feel anything through the sidestick. I learned after quite a few months I have to admit, to land the bus on visual references (which completely fail in every simulator I have to say) and on a seat-of-the-pants-experience. But still, even after more than 700 landings with my name on it, I am surprised sometimes about how hard or soft the landing turns out.
Everybody has his/hers own landing technique. Personally I prefer a heavy 321, and I keep having trouble with the light 319. But don't worry really, a hard landing is not neccesarily a bad one :-)
Good luck with your training and have fun! I love the A320!!
