1.  Drop your DNS ttl's to about an hour.  Go do this right now so it has 
time to refresh on the net.
2.  When you switch, change the DNS and wait.
3.  If you need to switch the IP's of your nameservers as well, I hope you 
have one on another network or you may be looking at some downtime while 
the root servers all ponder it.
4.  Go kick someone at your ISP in the jimmy for giving you 5 days to plan 
it out.
