Narrative:

The first officer (myself) was flying the localizer 30 to runway 30 at mia. The captain suspects that I touched down just short of painted runway threshold. That is the overrun area for opposite runway 12. I was distraction by tower asking us to keep up speed till the marker then a commuter aircraft in front of us was slow to clear. Asking the captain if he wanted to continue he said yes. I did because there was enough room, but I was looking down the runway making sure that the commuter would in fact clear prior to touchdown. I would say the landing was normal but the captain felt I was slightly short of the touchdown zone. In retrospect, I would say I would not have kept the speed up while there was slower commuter traffic in front of us. Being new to the aircraft was a slight distraction.
