I think "properly" means IMAPs/POPs/SMTP and not some funky dhtml-webmail-client. Just syncing your IMAP mailboxes and dropping WLAN afterwards will give you a much better battery life than having WLAN up during reading and writing your email.
And: using a Bluetooth-Keyboard might even prolong your battery life compared to using the tablet.
The major feature to a proper email client is the ability to work offline. I've got 1GB of mailboxes on my iLiad and I can sync new emails in and outgoing emails out to 5 email accounts in a short online session.

From the specs I've seen the BT dongle uses less power than the Wacom tablet... and a proper keyboard will allow for quicker generation of email.
