We worked with dozens of service providers to get their email services
migrated, AFAIK no one got an extension. I was told directly that it was
possible to have an extension because Google was pulling down the entire
system. I'd advise:
1) Make sure your domain TTL's are fairly low so you can change your MX
record and have the world get that update shortly there after.
2) Find an alternative email provider, preferably someone who has done
transitions to and from Google before.
3) Start communicating with your customers, AFAIK their email, address
books, and calendars aren't available and won't be.
