Just a suggestion: sucks to be you! :-/

Doing without the airport card, resoldering the socket or getting a  
new logic board are the only solutions here.

Now, unless you're Shrek, and approach electronics disassembly with a  
crowbar and a hammer, it's likely that the socket was already  
compromised, and that may actually have been the source of the KP's;  
it shouldn't have come off the logic board that easily.
