10.6: Create a new file anywhere via an Automator Service
Yeah, that's what this does, but only for text files, and you have to have a folder selected, instead of just clicking in a folder. The "Create new X file here" is one the two useful features Win has that Mac doesn't. There used to be a program that added this feature, but it broke in 10.6. Since I most often use the "new file here" option for text or source code files, this is a good enough solution.

As stated in the last step of the hint, you should comeback to automator (after assigning a keyboard shortcut) and change the "the service receives selected folder... " to "no input", to be able to use this service in the folder you are working in (without need to select some folder).
