Talents seems fine for 5-10mans, as for gear... You need a shield, and get to level 70 as fury/arms, as prot is just way to slow.
Did you level as prot or are you just assuming it is slow? I actually prefer soloing as prot, devastate spam is pure win, if it wasn't for the threat issue prot specs could easily top damage meters.

I did try level as prot, and it was simply to slow. And about damager meters... No. There's no way you can outthreat a good druid tank either as dps, as you will have endless rage problems.
Endless rage isn't a problem :P
And yes, I have lots of rage when i DPS as prot. Heck it feels like i use heroic strike almost as much DPSing as i do when tanking. Without salvation, i can get threat capped depending.
From level 55 on, prot works fine for levelling solo. Not quite as good as fury perhaps, but close enough to not be gimped. Heck, the difference between having good weapons or bad weapons is probably bigger than the difference between prot and fury.
Note: A fury/prot hybrid build is not a good idea. You miss out on the DPS-boosting talents that are available in the deep end of both the prot and fury trees, while only getting some of the tanking talents. You end up with the worst of both worlds.

It depends on your gear, really. I'd say I can pull out around 800 dps in raids as prot with dps gear, but around 2k with fury gear as fury. So yeah.
But there's no doubt it's faster to level as fury/arms than prot.
There is something wrong with that. Prot can dps just fine, its not gimped like those numbers. Also, yes, there is a big doubt that it is no faster leveling fury or arms compared to prot, in fact it may be slower considering downtime.
