Your iPAQ should have 80 MB (16MB FlashROM and 64MB RAM).
The Flashrom is used for bootloader/kernel and the root filesystem,
that was correctly shown by

The RAM is divided by two. One half is set up as a second filesystem
mounted on /mnt/ramfs. So on your 64MB model this reported as
> ramfs 32M 504k 31M 2% /mnt/ramfs

The remaining 32MB are used as normal ram.
You can try
# cat /proc/meminfo
or
# ls -l /proc/kcore
