I just promoted the new DCs (you'll get warning messages that you'll have to correct about prepping your domain and forest using tools on the 2008 DVD) and then demoted my old 2003 DC. Once done I raised the functional level using the management tools and all was well. Don't know if that's exactly how it's supposed to be done but it worked fine for me.
