I thought Kepler (expected launch 2007) is likely to be the first mission to detect terrestrial sized planets, not SIM (expected launch 2009) or TPF (expected launch 2014, if you believe in the Bush budget).

This is of course ignoring the terrestrial-sized pulsar planets that have already been discovered, but those planets get no respect, anyway.
