Exchange 2007 - any issues when migrating from win2003 DC's to win2008 DC's?

Well, as the title says, are there any issues I have to take care from when I introduce new win2008 DC's in a win2003 domain ? The network consist of a single win2003 domain and Exchange 2007 i installed on a win2008 server. My plan is to install new win2008 servers, promote them to DC and then shut down the old win2003 DC's. Are there any issues with this plan ?

Netometer videos are paid, just go through the technet article above, as all you need is to run adprep /forestprep and adprep /domainprep
... and transfer FSMO roles to a new 2008 DC :)
Oh sry forgot to add - after demoting the last 2003 DC - raise domain functional level.
So I would say - a little more as simply upgrading the shema, isn't it? ;-)
