Has anyone out there heard of a solution where I can be editing on my computer and sending the video and/or screen output to a client in another state?

Sure.
Two drives with identical footage and file structure and name. You have one, the producer has one. Send the project file to them, or an XML of the cut.

If you're talking about doing this in real time, try a Slingbox. It's cheap and it works surprisingly well. You use the Slingbox and your client downloads the Slingbox client to their computer. However, there can only be one computer watching the slingbox at a time. For more viewers you need more Slingboxes. I read an article a few months back that mentioned Slingboxes are being used in Hollywood to show dailies. The picture with the article showed a rack of 16 or 20 Slingboxes.

There are innumerable proprietary solutions. We use Wirecast sometimes. Not often enough to like it. Depends on what you need for rez and your idea of interactivity since it's getting pumped over the Internet in non-real time.
