How many active Wi-Fi routers are there in the world?

There are millions and millions of Wi-Fi routers out there.
I want to estimate how many exactly.
There are some hints: 1 A company called Skyhook Wireless say they have a database of over 250,000,000 locations of Wi-Fi routers; 2 WeFi.com show over 70,000,000 Wi-Fi hotspot on their website; 3 A research by Intel from 2008 estimated 400,000,000 Wi-Fi routers were deployed worldwide

Can you estimate how many Wi-Fi routers are really out there? And explain what your estimate is based on?
Tip for best answer: M$1.05
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

I think this is underestimated - actually now I see that in my question I placed the wrong numbers, it should be millions instead of thousands:
like I wrote, in WeFi.com there are over 70,000,000 routers, and SkyhookWireless.com claim they have over 250,000,000 routers in their database...

what did you base your estimate on?
