I agree is lion... a pally is just incredibly easy to play.
there is almost nothing to a pally including how the aoe concecrate drops where you stand.
/castrandom holy shield,
/castrandom all,other,pally,spells,you,want,to,use
the DK is going to take a little work to get that extra DPS out of it (finding the best castsequence,etc) , the aoe is click to cast.
it just depends on how much effort you want to put into it.
A pally is a great starter tank, a DK is more advanced tank that if played right can out produce a prot-pally for DPS and boost the teams DPS. ( and if played wrong it won't )
note: Ebon plaguebringer is a deep unholy talent while frost is supposed to be the true tanking spec for DKs. so many are comparing an unholy DK with a prot-pally instead of a more equivalent ret-pally.

I can't yet comment on the Pally, but I can say the DK as a booster works well. I just finished getting a mixed team to 60 with my 64 DK (started as 63 and dinged during the process)

I know this build is not optimal, but it worked pretty well [I was conflicted when making the build between DPS and tanking talents, so it came out as a mish-mash.] It had plenty of AE damage to take down large groups quickly and held aggro beautifully using frost presence. The bottom line is I found the DK pretty easy to work with.

If you got a decent geared 80 DK 1-40 sucks since you wont manage to get dots up, 1 hit=dead, i ended up switching to a gray 1h to get Plague strike up
40 and up they are in my opinin way better than pally since they got alot of panic buttons do alot more dmg
