Btw., you spoke abou her shatterpoint: Though she was physically dead when she got shot by Esme, she wasn't mentally, as Phoenix said her spirit was still lingering around. When Emma went against Thoughtwall during Secret Invasion, she also died physically, yet her spirit went on. Pretty amazing i think. Emma seems to be a strong enough telepath to survive even the death of her body, just like the Shadowking.

(13th June 2008)Might see something different, Pak's response to the question the first time round:

HM: 2.) Why was Celeste able to act as a host for the Phoenix Force in Phoenix Warsong and Emma unable to in Phoenix Endsong? From what I understood Emma insinuated that it had something to do with herself being cold emotionally. Does that mean the host of the Phoenix Force has to be full of passion and positive emotion?
GP: In the last issue of “Warsong,” Emma tells Celeste, “I trained you so stupidly -- tried to make you cold and cynical. Because that’s how I survived. But you’re stronger than that. Stronger than me.” That might mean that Celeste’s psionic potential is actually stronger than Emma’s. Or it might imply that to host the Phoenix requires a willingness to open oneself up or give oneself away in a way that Emma couldn’t. I’ll leave it up for readers to draw their own conclusions. [/B]
Emma Frost -White Phoenix
The Worlds Axis has been shifted, and the USA has become the United States of Amazonia. This is 616 Emma Frost but she has lived a completely different life. This suggests that the latter of Greg Paks answer is the correct one. You have to be willing to give oneself away to the Phoenix in order to host it. And this Emma could.

Emma Frost - Agents of Atlas Showdown
X-Men vs. Agents of Atlas 1
(7th October 2009)
Writer: Jeff Parker
Artist: Carlo Pagulayan and
Chris Samnee
Emma Frost is once again cited as a Powerful Telepath, at the moment she is unable to access a Psi abilties, her Diamond Form is containing a sliver of the Void and if she accesses her flesh form then it'll have access to her Omega Level Telepath abilties...or at least that is how Matt Fraction explained it (Lulz, I'll post his interviews later on).
Emma Frost smacks over M-11.
As shown before her Diamond Form makes her immune to telepathy whilst the other X-Men (Storm, Wolverine, Cyclops etc...are fair game).
Omega Class Telepath?
Okay before I write this...lulz...anyway interviews from Fraction describing her as an Omega Class Telepath:
Matt Fraction - CBR Evolution Revolution 6 (Interview)
(11th September 2009)
Writer: Matt Fraction
Interviewer: Dave Richards
What exactly happens with the Sentry and the Void in this scene?
Fraction : Scott and Emma knew they couldn't beat the Sentry, so they had to distract the Void and for a split second Emma does just that. She keeps it within herself long enough for Bob Reynolds to snap to, realize what's happening, and flee. All they needed to do was to buy that half-a-second for the Sentry to take off and he flies into space as fast as he can. He realizes the best thing he can do is get off the battlefield. He goes off at the speed of light and the Void rushes after him to reconnect so they can be whole again.
Doing that has left a sliver of the Void in Emma's psyche. She's got this weird, twisted dagger of darkness incarnate in her brain. So she has to stay trapped in diamond form, which cuts her off from her psychic powers. If she were to go flesh and blood the Void would have access to the abilities of an Omega level telepath. So she's basically the carrier for a disease. That was the price she paid.
Matt Fraction - Marvel.com (Interview)
(17th September 2009)
Writer: Matt Fraction
Interviewer: Kevin Mahadeo
Marvel.com: You mention things from the past building to the present. And we see that with Emma, a piece of the Void still remains in her. Apparently these pieces continue to build to the future as well.
Fraction: Yeah. She's stuck in diamond form. She's an omega class telepath. She can't risk giving the Void access to that. So, the X-Man's telepath is stuck in a diamond.
Matt Fraction - IGN (Interview)
(17th September 2009)
Writer: Matt Fraction
Interviewer: Jesse Schedeen
IGN Comics: And that's development we should look towards to pop up again in the series?
Fraction: Oh yeah. That's a huge thing. The X-Men's omega class telepath has just been taken off the board. She's stuck in diamond form. As long as she's in diamond form she doesn't have access to her psychic powers, and neither does the Void. Lest the Void gain access to Emma's abilities, she has to stay in diamond form to keep everyone safe.
