Frustrated w/Flobeds configuration - advice?

We bought a flobeds v-zone recently.  Me firm over x-firm, her medium over firm, <snipped due to inaccuracy>.  I am 5' 10" 165lbs, in my 40s, and very fit (a P90X'er).  I'm a back and sides sleeper. I haven't had a good night's sleep since we got the bed a month ago.  When I lay in it, it never quite feels comfortable, but the key thing is that after 5 or 6 hours I wake up and my lower back feels sore (even though it's in very good shape), back end uncomfortable, legs start to ache a little... it almost feels more like a nerve thing that makes me want to squirm and change positions.  Our old innerspring was not horribly comfortable either, especially laying on my sides w/pressure points in the hips, but once I got to sleep I slept significantly longer and more soundly than in this flobed.

Flobeds (who have been very nice) told me to try sleeping on my wife's side to see if I need something softer. I've tried that for 4 nights now and don't really feel any different when getting up... same sore spots.

Anyone (particularly those who are trim & fit) gone through something similar?  What did you do?  I basically just want a bed where I can sleep 7-8 hours without waking up feeling pain.
