DK's suck at 80. Don't roll one. They are boring, and you will be ushered into the cattle truck of BG with the other 20 DK's trying to be PvP gods.
They are flexible, and powerful, but boring as hell.
Everyone has one. It's the "lazy" class. As in "I'm to lazy to roll a real class, but blizz gave us this 'uber' hero class that is steam rolling in PvP, so I'm gonna roll that!"
Flavor of the Month with no time invested=LAME.
Don't worry, they will be nerfed, again, and they won't be as viable in arena. They aren't very viable atm either. They are just over played.
Since probably 50% of level 80/70 WoW account holders have an 80 DK, the over population makes them more apparently OP in arena(and the fad). The percentage of DK's that actually own in arena is probably small in comparison to the number of level 80 DK's.
Assuming level 80 arena with an equally skilled holy paladin backing them up- Surv Hunter, TG Warrior, Ret paladin, Warlock, and Feral Druid are all >>> DK.

He asked for "IMO's on DK's in end game PvP."
I gave him "IMO". I eat DK's if they don't have their cooldowns(But they still stand a really good chance against my ret pala 1v1, better against my druid 1v1, but I'm working on a good strat). Same as they eat me if I don't have mine.
End game PvP. Well I said it. To be more clear. You need a whole lot of gear (and knowledge of the class) to get good burst out of a DK. "Face roll to 2k?" Uh, not really. But you can probably "face roll" to 1800-1900 with a really good paladin to back you up.
IMO, wait till the FotM is over, then roll one. I made a VoA pug last night, and had 6 dk's in the group, and another 5 that wanted in it....
I don't hate FotM, so much as, well I'll use a metaphore, "illegal immigrants." I have the same feeling about that(I live in Southern California, yes). It's not the race/class I have a problem with, it's the shear number of ignorant and stupid ones that makes me mad.
It's also why I steamroll the rerollers in BG's on my ret paladin. It just makes me happy. =)

Nah, they just shouldn't have made the hero class plate is all.
If DK's wore leather, kinda like druids, but with the same abilities, and a different style of armor modifier(like, frost spec has a deep talent where frost presence encases your armor with pestilence infused ice, increasing it's rigidity and adding X% armor bonus plus normal frost presence modifier Y%) no one would have issues with them IMO.
The DK right now is just too rigid. Sure, they are killable, but with resil and all their talents, they are a pain in the arse to kill.
