I have a spare Strat with a GK2 which I use with an old GR33. Its 'okay' for adding some keys-like parts to recordings (strings in particular) - but it's a pretty clunky technology.
The plus side is you can pick this kind of thing up used for very little money - so if you want a dabble, it's a cost-effective way of accessing some other sounds.
I'm sure newer alternatives will be better - the Tripleplay looks like a really neat solution - but you'll lose a significant amount of money if you buy new and sell it on quickly.
The price certainly has come down, mine was nearly £400 when I bought it a couple of yrs ago

I still have this setup, but there may be better things available now, I'm really not up to date with this. I don't think the Axon is made any more, sadly too niche a market to really be viable for most companies.

Mind you, I eventually gave up and went back to using a keyboard to input MIDI into Cubase, As long as you get your music played in reasonably accurately - as far as timing goes - you can tighten it up in the edit by shifting bum notes and slight timing inaccuracies. I just find it's more straightforward to use than the MIDI from the guitar.
I think if you get the Foot Controller you can use standard MIDI.
