Keep or setup a box inhouse to show the message, when the servers are online in the data center, switch ips for the names over and then change the setup on the box to either redirect or proxy the requests to the real servers to handle incoming http requests due to cached dns entries.

Also, lower the cache time in your nameserver's zone files so that people will see the new IP addresses faster. 3600 seconds works pretty well, but I've used as little as 120 seconds for sites that are more popular.
