DK DPS seems pretty low

I've spent the last few hours looking up youtube videos of death knights and it seems to me that their dps is very low (and felhunters roflpwn them). Out of all the videos I watched, I only saw one crit over 3k, and even then there wasn't very many of them. I understand that dk's are somewhat dot oriented, but it seems like a) they never crit and b) their dots really don't do much. The most impressive thing I did see though was the bloodworms, I have a feeling people are going to be crying nerf very quickly. Typical heal from them was in the 120 range without a crit. Multiply that by 4 and it happens every 1-2 seconds. Very impressive self healing.
So for my main point, can any of you beta testers give me an indication about dk dps? Is it better than what I saw or do they really hit like a hemo dagger rogue with downs?

their self-healing wont be nerfed as thats the reason they dont need shields, its basically just a compensation.

Right now with the pvp premades, using target dummies in stormwind, I average 1700-1800 DPS with an unholy spec deathknight (

).
My DPS is around 1800-1900 on those same targets with my feral druid (

).
With a frost build on the deathknight (

) attacking the same targets I was only able to get around 900 DPS, half of what I could do with unholy.
