Great for small to medium-size lights, the black anodized aluminum 6' Light Stand from Impact is a lightweight (1.8 lb) support that can handle gear weighing up to 4 lb and folds down to just 26.3" to easily fit in a small bag. The stand has a minimum working height of 26.3" and a stable footprint of 30". The 3-section stand has an industry-standard 5/8" top stud with 1/4"-20 threads for additional mounting options.

Is this style enough to hold a 30" umbrella plus speed lite?
The Impact Light Stand, Black (6') has a maximum load capacity of 4 lbs. While you did not list the brand/model speedlight you own, using the Canon Speedlite 600EX II-RT, the Impact 30" Convertible Umbrella, and the Impact Deluxe Umbrella Mount with Adjustable Shoe as an example, the combined weight would be approximately 2.94 lbs. It would be more than strong enough to support the weight of a flash, umbrella, and umbrella bracket. However, for safety purposes (especially for use outdoors), I would also recommend using a sandbag on the base of the light stand as extra ballast (such as the Impact Filled Saddle Sandbag (15 lb, Black), B&H # IMSBFB15).

Can this hold an Arri 650?
Can this hold an Arri 650?
Impact is good for lighter LED panels, but I wouldn't trust it with the field duty of the ARRI 650 fresnel. The tubing is much too light a gauge. The clamps are much too fragile. Best to go with Matthews or ARRI AS-01 Lightweight 8.3' (2.5m) Light Stand. Impact cannot take too much of a beating, transported to locations. Even sandbags will eventually pop something out. Safety first.

question
Can I mount an on-camera Cineroid LED light on this stand? Usually you would use the mini-ball with light to put it on the camera.
You could mount a Cineroid on camera light to this stand but you'll need an adapter such as the Impact Swivel Umbrella Adapter B&H # IMCA108. This adapter would have a 1/4 male thread which connects to the 1/4 female threading on the light. It also has a 5/8 receiver to fit the stand. Please see the image below for reference.

question
What else will I need to go with this for my softbox?
You will need a monolight and an approproiate speed ring. You should also get some sandbags to prevent the stand from tipping over.

Is the 1/4 " thread on this stand compatible with the iPad teleprompter? And can it also handle the weight?
The I Pad teleprompter will fit on the ¼ -20 threads of the Impact Light Stand, Black (6')
However, please note that the rated load capacity of the light stand is 4 lb.
