Sooo...
We welcome the d6. However...
*divine casters are armored
*divine casters use d8
*divine casters get better weapons
*divine spells do more damage (WHY?)
*divine spells can buff allies
*channel divinity
Wizard has 3 good spells in the full of his spelllist - Mage Hand, Charm and Ray of Frost. Everything else is boring or stricktly inferior to divine spell in usefulness.

You're not the Fighter. That alone should dry up any tears.
D&DN Paladin: Half-Fighter, half-Cleric, all useless. D&DN Ranger: Third-Fighter, third-Rogue, third-Druid, all useless. With one interesting concept that has its execution botched. My 4e Character Op work:Character guides

Fighter is not all that bad. Boring - sure - but he does reliable and respectable damage, and is pretty sturdy.

Got the shaft again? When has the wizard ever "gotten the shaft"?

Wizards have always played second fiddle to clerics in the old edition power races. They were terrifyingly, insanely good with the right build, but CoDzilla (Cleric or Druid + Godzilla) was better.

You don't have to use a shaft. Try using daggers.

So what specifically happened in your game to make wizards seem bad?
How many encounters did you run them through?

Wizards always get the shaft, which they're apparently supposed to hit people with.
EDIT: Ninja'd. I should seriously stop getting distracted when typing.

Sounds like a good start. Its easier to buff up than tear down.
