Just reduce the TTL (time to live) of the domain to say 30 mins or even less a few days before the move. Then move the server and change your dns entries to reflect your new A records. The change will be seen by the rest of the net in less than an hour.

Just pop your TTL to normal a few days after the move to be nice to the DNS system.
Genius - thank you! Why did nobody suggest this to me before?
