I've been studying every little information we get about it.
It's actually somewhat balanced, basically once you enter a battle your Pokemon changes form because it's holding the mega stone thing. But it's not permanent because it's not a 4th evolution. It's more like achieving that Pokemon's maximum potential because it can't evolve any more.
By transforming the Stats (most likely exceeding the typical amount of stats given), and possibly the Type will change. Nothing else is confirmed on whether something else might change.
This is actually a great way to allow older Pokemon to get more use in battle, and to keep it so not every Pokemon has to have 3 stages of evolution.
My only two bits on it though is that every Starter should get a Mega Evolution to keep it Fair, and that they should try to keep Mega Evolutions apart from a generations Poke Count (How many new Pokemon are introduced per generation.)
It's a interesting concept, and unlike new generation Pokemon Game Freak could possibly even allow Free Game Updates/DLC that release more Mega Evolutions over time.
