You can run the following AppleScript through a service with keyboard shortcut or context menu item.

tell application "Finder"
  set selection to make new file at (get insertion location)
end tell


Alternatively, drag the current directory to Terminal and type touch filename. You can alias the command to something like n for easier activation, and also add closing the Terminal window to the aliased command.
